Community Building DIY Events

Strengthening the military spouse community through hands-on learning.

Handmade Matters

When you make something, you leave a part of yourself in it and take pride in what you created because you see yourself in it! No two handmade items are exactly alike, just like people. ​

Engaging Community

Community building DIY events bridge the civilian military divide and provide an opportunity for military spouses to engage, network and discover a path to living their life with passion and purpose. ​

MilSpouse Strong

Creating a community and fostering relationships is vital to the mental health and well being of our military families. Military spouses come together to learn, cultivate relationships and leave events feeling empowered and motivated. ​

These events empower military spouses to learn a new skill, problems solve, and through this creative outlet military spouses are building a community of support and resources that encourages mental health wellness.
